To optimize Estelle Bright as a support and healing character, the emphasis shifts to maximizing her EP (Energy Points), Mind, and access to restorative and buffing arts. This build transforms Estelle into a crucial pillar of survivability for the party, ensuring everyone stays in the fight. Essential Quartz for this build include those that boost EP, such as EP Up, and those that enhance her Mind stat, like Mind Up. Access to healing and support arts is paramount, so prioritize Quartz that unlock powerful healing spells like Tear and Seraphic Ring, as well as buffing arts like Protect and Shell.
In her Orbment setup, the goal is to create a robust EP pool and ensure a steady regeneration of EP. Quartz that increase EP regeneration, such as EP Charge, are invaluable. Consider equipping arts that provide status ailment cures or defensive buffs to the entire party. Items that restore EP or boost Mind should be a constant presence in your inventory. During combat, Estelle's role is to keep the party healthy and prepared for incoming damage. Use her healing arts proactively to prevent party members from falling into critical health ranges, and apply buffs before challenging enemy encounters.
Her S-Craft, Heaven's Tear, while not as offensively potent as her physical S-Craft, can provide a significant party-wide heal, making it a lifesaver in dire situations. Party composition is key for a support Estelle; pairing her with strong damage dealers allows her to focus on keeping them alive. Characters who can provide additional buffs or debuffs can further enhance the party's effectiveness, allowing Estelle to concentrate on her primary support role. This build is perfect for players who prefer a more strategic, defensive approach to combat, ensuring their party's longevity.
